Fifa to launch new World Cup ticket sales phase this Thursday | OneFootball

Fifa will open a new phase of ticket sales this Thursday at 1 PM (Brasília time), called the Fan Sales Phase, for the 2026 World Cup. During this period, fans can register their requests to purchase tickets for their teams' matches.

This category of tickets corresponds to the percentage reserved by the entity for all Participating Member Associations competing in the tournament (approximately 8% of the stadium capacity where they play the match). In Brazil's case, the entire CBF quota will be sold directly by Fifa.

Requests can be made until 1 PM on January 13. The time a fan registers within this period will not affect their chances of obtaining a ticket.

See the step-by-step guide on how to purchase tickets:

To ensure the purchase, it is necessary to create an account on the FIFA.com/tickets platform. If the account has already been created, you will need to log in with your email and password. Then, the fan must choose their preferred team – this is a step for statistical purposes.

Next, the fan will need to indicate their team, which will give them access to the ticket quota reserved for the chosen team. Tickets acquired by fans from the quota allocated for each team will be positioned in the stadium in the section behind one of the goals.

Fans can select the matches, categories, and the number of tickets per match they wish to purchase, respecting the restrictions established by Fifa.

Once this phase ends on January 13, 2026, whenever the demand for purchase requests exceeds availability for a match or category, Fifa will hold draws to determine the fans awarded tickets.

Additionally, Fifa clarifies that “applicants whose requests are fully or partially fulfilled will be informed by email, and payment will be processed automatically in February. A partially approved request indicates that the fan will receive the number of tickets requested for one game but not for all the requested matches.”

Payments will be processed at the end of this phase, which should occur between January and February of the following year, following the payment method indicated during the ticket request process.
